Have you ever had that feeling like something bad was going to happen? You just get a weird feeling like something bad was going to happen but you just didn't know what? That's what happened this's morning. I just brushed it off. It was proably nothing anyway. 804Please respect copyright.PENANAksoRB4XsEU

Oh! Sorry! I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Ai. I'm in my second year of high school and I'm 15 years old. I'm pretty popular, if I do say so myself. I have lots of friends and people say I have an outgoing personality. I live a happy life with my family. I live with my little brother and my mom, dad passed away when I was young. My life's pretty good.804Please respect copyright.PENANAMVibMyxefA

Okay, so back to today. It was Saturday so I didn't have any chores or anything, I never do on the weekend. Mom say that Saturday and Sunday are my days off. I wasn't doing anything with my friends so I pretty much had the whole day to my self.804Please respect copyright.PENANAaCvHxACxXo

I decided to go for an early morning jog. Mom said she'd probably have lunch ready by around noonish so I shouldn't stay out late. I walked out the front door and started jogging.804Please respect copyright.PENANAQh4goazpSZ
804Please respect copyright.PENANAdVaSkSZrNk
"Hey Ai," I heard a familiar voice yell. I looked over and saw my best friend May looking over at me. "What're you doing?"804Please respect copyright.PENANAUl1WqwMSOR
804Please respect copyright.PENANAXztNVnksj3
"Just going for an early morning jog. You?"804Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5qcUUD1IF
804Please respect copyright.PENANAqDhbPtsCRT
"Same."804Please respect copyright.PENANAGneFHUZpwa
804Please respect copyright.PENANAdgVrMGa1Ay
We ran together for about three hours. Taking lots of breaks, of course. I looked at the time on my phone an realized that it was about noon.804Please respect copyright.PENANAIqPhPNzu0a
804Please respect copyright.PENANA1FCNsKyJAR
"Sorry," I said, "but I have to go. I'm going to be late for lunch. See you at school Monday?"804Please respect copyright.PENANAUjHrr6uLo3
804Please respect copyright.PENANAzrEjbtT2jt
"Yep," she said. "See ya!" She waved bye to me.804Please respect copyright.PENANAH67vhaWdUF

I started running in the direction of my house because I knew Mom would be really mad if I wasn't back really soon. I saw smoke coming in the direction of my house. "I'm in so much trouble," I told myself804Please respect copyright.PENANAhSXN2mfReP
804Please respect copyright.PENANACNWYWZYDEF
"I wonder what happened?" I asked myself. I started to feel a little worried. "There's no way that could be my house," I reassured myself.804Please respect copyright.PENANAKEJpp1a3nk
804Please respect copyright.PENANAZwfA8UWhAP
Suddenly I saw a fire truck rushing past me. Please don't turn here, I thought to myself. The truck made the next to and I started running in the direction of my house. Suddenly I saw my house at the end of the street. It was completely consumed by fire. I ran up to the yellow caution tape.804Please respect copyright.PENANAjGiaIdju3M
804Please respect copyright.PENANARDRqablx42
"What happened to the family in there?" I asked the nearest fireman.804Please respect copyright.PENANA7Mif7qJRoZ
804Please respect copyright.PENANAB65ck19EXw
"We were told that the family had gone away on vacation," the man told me.804Please respect copyright.PENANAPpKh7oysyx
804Please respect copyright.PENANAf6sJobvYnw
"No!" I yelled. "They're still in there! Go help them! Please!"804Please respect copyright.PENANAXlHKUOfOI4
804Please respect copyright.PENANA2oy9eynKOh
"Don't worry miss," the fireman said to me. "There is no one in the building."804Please respect copyright.PENANAuoEVb63LAM
804Please respect copyright.PENANAd9wloCBb0c
If they wouldn't believe me then I'd have to save my family myself. I ducked under the yellow tape and ran into the house. I don't know why, it was probably the adrenaline, but I couldn't feel the flames licking at my arms and legs. I ran in to the kitchen and saw three plates of food set on the table. I checked all of downstairs but didn't find them.804Please respect copyright.PENANA11Mh9dEO0q
804Please respect copyright.PENANAPTtANDt0Be
I ran upstairs. I checked everywhere. The only place left was the bathroom. I ran in and saw something I was hoping wouldn't be there. I saw Mom's and Rin's, my little brother's, remains siting in the shower. I ran over and saw that Mom was barely alive.804Please respect copyright.PENANAjnca9nFU3V

"Go," she said. She put her hand on my right shoulder and pushed me back. I dontknow why, but I suddenly felt the pain of the fire. I looked at my right shoulder and saw a hand print burned onto my shoulder.804Please respect copyright.PENANAZ8JQRj6v1c
804Please respect copyright.PENANAW8pupe7BGj
I screemed. I felt someone pick me up and carry me out of the building. The last of my clear memories was Mom looking at me and mouthing the words, live.804Please respect copyright.PENANAiEaIjKPKXu
804Please respect copyright.PENANAQEOKjIvRbf
Everything after that was a blur. I remember the pain and the burn marks all over my body. I remember being hooked up to an oxygen tank and being set on what felt like a blanket. I remember a loud noise and people talking around me. But that was about it. That was the last I remembered of the day that I lost everything.804Please respect copyright.PENANASnMFWYOgbC
